Summary

Avoid truncating 32-bit values. This would have saved me a bit of time
when I was looking at a cpuid leaf on my system and typed 0x80000001f
instead of 0x8000001f.

I do not think that usage() is required there, user does know what she did, but mis-typed the input.

markj marked 2 inline comments as done.

Handle kib's comments.
